Gemini overlay and Gemini Live rolling out big Android redesign
9to5Google • • technology
Key Points:
- Google is rolling out another major redesign for the Gemini overlay and Gemini Live, following updates in February and March, with these visual changes arriving rapidly.
- The Gemini overlay on Android now combines the attachments and Tools menus into a narrower pill, featuring a larger "Ask Gemini" button and an outline-style microphone icon, with a new bottom sheet carousel for Photos, Camera, Files, Drive, and Notebooks.
- Additional features accessible via the bottom sheet include Create image, Create video, Create music, Canvas, Deep research, Guided learning, and a Personal Intelligence toggle, with similar combined designs expected for the full mobile app soon.
- Gemini Live's redesign replaces the large pill overlay with a floating interface centered on a waveform, including screen sharing, keyboard exit, and captions buttons, and it condenses into a smaller circle when navigating the phone.
- These updates are currently available in Google app beta version 17.3 but have not yet appeared in the stable channel.
